The Marikana Support Campaign said the new
terms of reference set out by the Marikana Commission of Inquiry will help
cover corporate capital and government executives from accountability.

Marikana Support Campaign Spokesperson
Rehard Desai said some of the terms include that the commission will be
expedited and completed by the 31st of July which will give no time
to cross examine key officials at Lonmin and the ANC cabinet.

“We will not give up until all the evidence
emerges and we are insisting or demanding from Judge Ian Farlam and President
Jacob Zuma to extend the life of this commission.

Desai also said while they will be waiting
at home in the months and years ahead they will be campaigning to ensure truth
and justice is done.
